hi,
I'm just getting into zsh and I have an alias from cshrc:
alias ff 'find . -name "\!*" -print'
that I can't get converted to zsh.
any help much appreciated.
Thank you for your time and consideration. -Jose Unpingco

Define it as a function instead of an alias
function ff { find . -name "$@" -print }
